Backscratchers. 30 years ago these were everywhere. Everyone had one. You could get 'em at the gas station, the drug store, the novelty store, the Spencer's Gifts (head shop) at the mall, I think they might've come free in specially-marked boxes of Count Chocula.
Y'know, a stupid plastic backscratcher: 
Recently my wife happened to mention that she wanted one, I figgered I'll get her one for xmas...and Wilco Tango Foxtrot? I can't find one anywhere!
I tried three drug stores, the K-Mart, the underground mall at Penn Station...nothing. I looked on line, and it seems like the only places that sell these are in Australia, New Zealand, or the UK!
Where can I get a backscratcher? |

Try a flea market.

Maybe the backscratcher will come back now that we see how many billions of dollars a year people are paying for water in shiny plastic bottles.
The one that cracked me up was this summer when we had a landscape contractor come out to give us an estimate to trick out our yard. He had $1,500 set aside for "rocks". I asked him if he was really charging me for rocks, and he said with a straight face yes. I excused him and his bid from my kitchen table at that moment.
